Published on January 3, 2012

Hello All…
I Love doing Embroidery, but it takes much time & concentration & being a student,I cant enjoy embroidery much.but last month I was free from Exams so I thought why not to try something with Embroidery..

Once I have shared a waist belt & I said I will share its technique..but sorry I am late :( well my today’s creation is a part of the same thing! this post will be helpful for you !
So Lets see what I have Done within a few hours!

Hand Embroidery (DIY)

Is it Nice..?

Hand Embroidery (DIY)

Its Not a big purse,I can add some handy stuff in it :) like my iPhone,glasses,wallet etc :)

This is the finished Design, When I start this I was thinking about making a belt but at last I complete a purse :)

Hand Embroidery (DIY)

I bought nothing for making this,I was not sure what I will use in design,I open my Embroidery stuff stash which is filled with several colors & designs of beads,sequins,rhinestones,tiny decorative stuff for fabric etc.. I am a good organizer :) & I love these glass jars of 2″..hmm

I use 3 colors of sequins(green,aqua,antique) & 3 colors of Tilla(embroidery thread)

Hand Embroidery (DIY)

I take the leather piece which I have been used in my sweater refashion ,Its a good stuff for doing Embroidery! & I make a freehand design with marker,

FOR THE DETAILED TUTORIAL OF THIS EMBROIDERY STITCH,CHECK THIS PREVIOUS TUTORIAL POST

Hand Embroidery (DIY)

First I start making the outline with chain stitch, the hook is like crochet hook but with a very slim Tip

Then I start doing Zigzag over the chain stitch because the chain stitch will definitely be safe even if you will cut along the outline of embroidery,,,Actually I start making this as a belt patch design but when I complete I make a purse..huh..if you are not going to cut it,you can avoid zigzag stitch!

Then I start filling the design with sequins,my Mother suggest me to make a purse or pouch with this embroidery,I like her idea & I start spreading this design :)

Again first I make chain stitch outline & then filling with sequins!

My mother help me in sewing this purse,I am not good in sewing! Then I attach a rhinestones lace as a strip of my purse :)

Roses are Not usual in this severe cold..but daily I pluck 4,5 roses from my garden,Unique..isn’t it?

Have a look at some of my other Zardosi embroidery posts!

I HOPE you will like my work, Give it a try & Enjoy!

AND

If you want to make a waist belt with the same design you will need to do..

1- cut the embroidery design patch carefully

2- paste any thick fabric piece at back side

3- take any waist belt or broad ribbon & hand stitch the patch with the strip & you have done!

p.s have you noticed my cell casing above? be ready for its DIY next week :)
